Overview

This book is a project manual designed to provide practical laboratory experience for the student of Industrial controls: Its purpose is two fold (1) to provide structured laboratory experiences based on motor control applications. (2) to provide a background on programming control circuits and concepts that are used in industry. Throughout the manual the student will construct and program their own circuits focusing on "real-world" purposes. The projects and experiments will lead them in a step-by-step development process, designed to progress through various stages of programming instructions. The student's abilities to analyze and program circuits will progress as they complete each project. The simulator can be used to complete all the programming projects and experiments in the book. With the supervision of the instructor the simulator can be assembled and connected by students to provide valuable training.
